Great podcast. Crossstich is new to me. I would like something easy
Hi Kristin, I love listening about all your makes. I have just started cross-stitching and am enjoying something different. They are all so cute. Thank you for your podcast. All the best! Sheila
I love hearing about situating your craft room. Mine is a mess and is getting decluttered and reorganized this next weekend while my husband is out of town. I just finished a year long cross stitch project last night This is the Day by Plum Street Samplers). I have finished plenty of other smaller patterns while working on this one, but I am so glad to have a finish. Now on to framing it. It was my largest cross stitch to date. 2 3
I enjoy listening to all the projects and recommendations you give. I’d love to win the chickens!!
#1 is my favorite! Love love your podcast!!!
Thanks,
Teresa
Another great podcast episode! My pick would be either number 3 or 1. Thanks for the chance to win!
I am new to your podcast which i found looking for someone who similar trails and stages in Life then your podcast was suggested. Am so delighted that you are here in the podcast World. I have not been able to do cross stitch projects of large portions after having covid aftereffects that make it difficult to stay awake ;0) but how lucky others can ;0) i Think all of your generous choices would be lovely.
I am currently in Denmark visiting, which i can see is not that far from sweden. Have a great work trip. There are so many hobbie shops for exactly your interesse her on your podcast.
I love your podcasts and have been listening to it for a couple of years. I am almost an empty nester and are not sure how I feel about it. Cross stitching is the first hand craft my grandmother taught me as a 10 y/o and it is my handwork of choice when traveling. I would love to win the Autumn cross stitch pattern, it will make a beautiful small throw pillow.
Thanks for another episode! I would be thrilled with any of the giveaway items–so cute.
Another wonderful podcast. I just finished listening as I went on my daily walk. I really like the fall cross stitch and the cute chickens. Thanks for a chance to win.
A fun episode, as always. I feel like I’m catching up with an old friend. I seem to have lost my quilts bug but I’ve been making zippered pouches (thinking Christmas gifts) from my ridiculous stash of mini charm packs. I’m cross stitching on multiple projects. 2 3
Just love listening to you! Your crafts, home tips and even the whoopsies 😊 I’ve listened to all of your podcasts and feel my quilting journey has be along with you. I’d love one of the cross stitch give aways as you’ve inspired me to try this craft. Thank you.
I would love to win any of the 3 offered. Please enter me for 1,2 and 3. Love your podcast!
Just found your podcasts! Great for my ride home from work.
I would love any giveaway!
I adore cross-stitch and quilting. My favorite hobbies. 🥰
Thanks for your inspiration as usually and also thanks for the chance to win! 1 or 3 would be awesome!
Thank you for another enjoyable podcast! I feel like we have the exact same interests. I, too, have been working on Flea Market Flowers and you have given me hope that I will someday finish it lol. I’d love to win a smaller project, especially #3 or #2. Thanks so much for the opportunity!
Would love the chicken patterns
Trying to get the courage to try cross stitch
I’m enjoying your podcast whilst sitting on the deck in the sun hand-stitching a binding… I love to hear your updates on quilting and cross stitching, and your TV and book recommendations. I’d like to win the little chickens! Thank you for the company and the giveaway!
Love to win chicken s
